PAX Aus is one of Australia’s biggest gaming events, a celebration of our gaming culture in Australia featuring thought-provoking panels, a massive expo hall filled with the best publishers and independent studios, new game demos, musical performances, tournaments, and a community experience unlike any other.
This year, PAX Aus is celebrating its 10th anniversary and runs from Oct 6th-8th at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre.
This year, Nintendo returns to PAX Aus, with the Splatoon 3 AU/NZ Championship 2023 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe AU/NZ Championship 2023 culminating in the live finals in PAX Arena. Teams can learn more about qualifying online for this epic showdown at Nintendo Australia’s website.Â
Also returning this year, Bethesda joins PAX Aus’ 10th anniversary. The expo floor will provide the opportunity to get hands-on some of the latest content, hardware and tech from our long-time friends including Devolver Digital, Audio-Technica, ASUS ROG, Aftershock PC, Cooler Master, HTC VIVE, Corsair, MSI and Crunchyroll. Â
PAX Aus also welcomes first-timers including NetEase Games, who have created titles across a variety of genres and platforms.
PAX Rising will again see some of the best independent developers in Australia bringing their exceptional talent to the expo floor including the 10 winners of our PAX Aus Indie Showcase that can be found in both the digital and tabletop areas.
If the expo hall has wiped you out, the rest of the show will not help, with a host of options to entertain including compelling panels, tournaments, and cosplay championships running all weekend, just to name a few things!
